You'll get there. My first 2 were potty trained at 18 months. My youngest wasn't until almost 3. She would take her underwear off, pee on the floor, and ask for a diaper. I didn't do anything differently, she just did it on her own time. Don't let parents whose kids are potty trained at 18 months tell you it's easy. Sometimes it is, but sometimes it isn't. The oldest was relatively easy, the second didn't even really need training, and the third just flat out refused.

I agree with this , it has to be done in a time when your child is prepared to do it. It helps to prepare things though and get it in your kids mind that it's to their benefit. My son quickly didn't want to use the little potty, he wanted to use the toilet, so we bought a child's seat that goes over the adult seat and he was very happy with that.
